Bushwhack: “Axe to the Max!”

Like a mighty nature warrior, BUSHWHACK chops through enemies and LEAVES a trail of victory wherever he goes!

Arbo, the mystical and wise Tree Ent, once taught Bushwhack all the secrets of the forest. Despite Bushwhack’s tiny size, Arbo knew he was brave and worthy to defend the beautiful Arcadian Timberland of his tribe. One fate-filled day, the patrolling Timberland elf rangers were overthrown by a vicious band of Lumberjack Trolls! They were bent on destroying the forest with huge tree-chopping machines! Bushwhack sprang into action! Using the enchanted axe that Arbo had given him, he fought off the evil trolls single-handedly until the Arcadian Timberland was safe once more. Bushwhack was given a Traptanium Axe and promoted to Trap Master, fulfilling his destiny as a protector of Skylands.
